@Buidhe: It is not interesting that she did both it is interesting that she did those things at all. Not everybody participated in those marches and not everybody in those marches was elected to offices where they could introduce such legislation. Also I edited the early life section to fix the "close paraphrasing" problem. - Jon698talk15:37, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Jon698 and Buidhe: Would simply focusing on the "introduced legislation in Montana" hook fact work better? How about:
Another possible option could be to combine ALT1 with her being a member of a Native American tribe; personally I thought the contrast between her being Native American and her introducing legislation to honor an African-American was interesting, though others may have different opinions Narutolovehinata5tccsdnew11:05, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm approving ALT1 or ALT1a to be promoted as reliably cited. Earwig shows "violation unlikely" and I don't think there currently is one. I'm not sure what the hold up from Buidhe is for and that isn't fair to the nominator. SL93 (talk) 12:00, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
